Re: New Motherboard

Not to rain on your parade, it was Nvidia, Asus, et. al. that did a lousy job by not providing easy to find information relating to all current monitors that are "3d-Vision Ready". I've spent way too much time trying to find information but later today I'll post the most important information that I found.

I found a recent Newegg review where it said:

I had to have windows set my monitor (Asus VG248QE) to 120hz, not he 144hz I originally was using.

I'll give the most helpful suggestion right now; spend time reading the longest and most detailed customer reviews on Newegg and Amazon.

It might help to download and read the 639 page Nvidia universal installation guide, but don't worry, the guide covers 11 different languages.

My favorite finding was this gem in the Asus VG248 monitor manual:

Only DisplayPort and DVI ports support 3D feature given NVIDIA 3D Vision Kit is available.

This by the way is the full extent of their in depth information about 3D-Vision in the monitor manual.

Re: New Motherboard

Don't spend too much time on me. Heading off to work soon, but had time this morning to check out some forums on 3d monitors. Most interesting is the Nvidia community, where I found some recent 2015 threads with the same questions I have about new monitors and 3d support from the manufacturers or great lack of it. After spending a couple hours, it seems the only monitor available now to support Nvidia 3d is the ASUS ROG. With the higher definition. If this is agreeable, will probably just purchase this monitor.

Re: New Motherboard

A. Because of its high data rate, DisplayPort 1.2a systems today can support 4K displays at 60Hz refresh and full 30-bit 4:4:4 color (non-chroma subsampled). DisplayPort 1.3 systems will support 5K displays (5120 x 2880) at 60Hz refresh, and for 4K displays will enable deeper color and higher refresh rates. When enabled with DisplayPort’s Multi-Stream feature, several monitors can be connected to a single output on a video source device (such as a laptop or computer), using a daisy-chain or hub configuration.
